Every so often, someone has the opportunity to show to the world just how phony the Liberals are with their "we're all about making life dandelions and kittens whiskers" mantra-hypocrisy. It's even better when TWO people make it happen. This is one of those occasions.

And that's why we, the Catholic Cavemen, do hereby acknowledge Miss Gianna Jessen and Representative Ted Harvey as our All Around Co-Bad Asses of the Day.

So what did Gianna and Ted do that was so heroic? They had the pro-murder Democrats in the Colorado General Assembly squirming in their seats and uber-pissed that their 'cover was blown' by our heroes. Now we all just how oh, so caring and loving the Democrats in Colorado are. Specifically;

The Colorado General Assembly planned on honoring the 90th anniversary of Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains. Ted, being a pro-life Conservative member of the Assembly, arraigned for a certain Miss Gianna Jessen to sing the National Anthem on the day that PP was to be honored. Gianna belted it out, and had everyone on their feet applauding.

As the song concluded the speaker of the House explained that Gianna has cerebral palsy and is an activist to bring awareness to the disease. "Let us give her a hand not only for her performance today, but also for her advocacy work," he said. The chamber immediately exploded into applause — she had them all in the palm of her hand.

Ted then further explained to the Assembly that Gianna was born premature. She was given up by her mother. She was raised in foster homes. She was never suppose to walk. As Ted said;

"Two years ago, she walked into a local health club and said she wanted a private trainer. At the time her legs could not lift 30 pounds. Today she can leg press 200 pounds."

"She became so physically fit that she began running marathons to raise money and awareness for cerebral palsy. She just returned last week from England where she ran in the London Marathon. It took her more than eight-and-a-half hours to complete. They were taking down the course by the time she made it to the finish line. But she made it, nonetheless. With bloody feet and aching joints, she finished the race."

"Members would you help me recognize a modern-day hero — Gianna Jessen?"

At this point the chamber exploded into applause which lasted for 15-to-20 seconds. Gianna had touched their souls.

Ironically, Alice Madden, the majority leader and sponsor of the Planned Parenthood resolution, walked over to Gianna and congratulated her.

Now came the time for Ted to drop the hammer...

"The cause of Gianna's cerebral palsy is not because of some biological freak of nature, but rather the choice of her mother."

"You see when her biological mother was 17-years-old and 7-and-a-half months pregnant, she went to a Planned Parenthood clinic to seek a late-term abortion. The abortionist performed a saline abortion on this 17-year-old girl. This procedure requires the injection of a high concentration of saline into the mother's womb, which the fetus is then bathed in and swallows, which results in the fetus being burned to death, inside and out. Within 24 hours the results are normally an induced, still-born abortion.

"As Gianna can testify, the procedure is not always 100 percent effective. Gianna is an aborted late-term fetus who was born alive. The high concentration of saline in the womb for 24 hours resulted in a lack of oxygen to her brain and is the cause of her cerebral palsy.

"Members, today, we are going to recognize the 90th anniversary of Rocky Mountain Planned Parenthood…"

BANG! The gavel came down.

Just as I was finishing the last sentence of my speech — the climax of the morning — the speaker of the House gaveled me down and said, "Representative Harvey, I will allow you to continue your introduction, but not for the purposes of debating a measure now pending before the House."

At which point I said,

"Mr. Speaker, I understand. I just wanted to put a face to what we are celebrating today."

Silence.

Deafening silence.

Is it any wonder they're our All Around Co-Bad Asses Of The Day? Way to go, Gianna and Ted. The Cavemen got yer back.
